Thoughts on Bunting Jake Brown

Maybe the coach was irritated Jake didn't get it done the first two attempts.

Boils down to confidence that he'll get it down. All there is to it.

This isn’t high school. Jay doesn’t do things because he is aggravated.

Ridiculous

I cringed when I saw this. Then your cleanup is in the wrong spot! Also, bunting with 2 strikes.

Damned if you do, damned if you don’t.

he didnt want to go to Pearson to pinch hit because it was very early and they change pitchers a lot. as soon as you put Pearson in ,they end up going back to a righty 2 innings later, they're known for this. we need brown in against that potential righty.

he busted because he probably doesn't remember the last time hes evem looked decent swinging against a lefty.

kept it on with two strikes because there's a better chance that he strikes out or hits into a dp ,than him not getting the bunt down .

I absolutely hate essentially sacrificing an out to advance runners, its even worse once there was 2 strikes. The analytics don't back it up. I hate it.

But Jay likes to do it so it is what it is

His first two attempts were one of the worst sacrifice bunt attempts I have ever seen. Got in position way too late and didn’t even fully square up
